No doubt KDirStat was based on SequoiaView, but WinDirStat was based directly on KDirStat, as in it was a port of it to Windows. I don't think it is incorrect to mention SequoiaView as the original, but it nonetheless feels weird to skip a hop too. It got not just the tree view but even the name from KDirStat.
